Be it known that lt, Darrin WILEY .ttnnnie son, a citizen oi the United States, reeitling at 'icottetille,A in the vcounty ot' Alheinarle and ritate of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Automatic lti'eatltegulating Attachments for lleaters of Various;I Kinde, ot which the following in a. bjptazitication.

'lfhis invention relates to an automatic vheat regulating attachment for Stores, tur- 'naces, ranges, ovens, and henteraot' various kinds.

The prime object ot :ny invention its to provide a simple, durable, economical, novel and etlicient Selfregulating attachment tor heaters which will readily demonstrate its inel Having as well as its ntniitary qnalitien.

,it further object ot' the invention to so construct my improved attnclnnent that `it 'niay he secured to, or he formed iiitegral with stoves, jlnrnaces. and heaters of' various types, and will he autoniaticaliy oper ated hy the increased air iniet current and gravitation, or by the incre-lined or decreased atmospheric incssnre which is occasioned by the il'icreased or decreased intensity oi the lient inside of the stove or heater, together with gravity, thereby preventing the Stove or heater iroin lieingg overheated and aise from getting; too coldfthus eliminating), the. trouble o'l1 having to frequently turn on and oil'r the drat'tI dalnptan, as ia ctnttoniar)7 with the ordinary devices non' employed.

A iurthcr olijeet olE this il'ivention is to provide, a norel attaclunent `which niay he constructed or sheet or cast nietah of any suitable or desirahlc eine or :ihape which will hc rcadili.Y capahle ot nicotine' the required conditions olL the. ettore.
